Well, you could always get a fish filet at McD's or a salad there too. To limit your comparison to your specific choices (which may be more healthy then their average meal) to an average McD's meal is a failure to make a solid argument. Also, caesar salad isn't very hot -- crotons and caesar salad dressing are very very fatty. Anyhow, I definitely agree, I eat crappy food on a semi regular basis (and when i eat crappy food, I go to a good restaurant) but try to have very good meals and exercise a lot to counter balance that.
Anyway, the point I'm making is that McD's is not entirely to blame. Shitty eating is a fact of society -- how else would national Moe Family Feedbags become a staple (the fact that an above poster named his only other choices as being other similar style restaurants is pretty coincidental). McD's and every other restaurant is an entrepreneurial enterprise, so they want to maximize their profit; why bother changing if people don't care and you can give them basically anything? in my opinion, McD's is just proof that people will pay to put just about any type of shit into their body. Maybe just a biproduct of an overly succesful capatilistic society that has degenerated into laziness and compliance. But whatever, that is another argument.
if one goes out to eat, try to go to independent run restaurants. chances are they will actually cook their own food, have fresher ingredients, and you won't be supporting some towering national corporation.
